Description:

Pros:

• Berit Lindholm is radiant as Brünnhilde.
• Hans Hopf, although late in his career, still has the chops for one of operas most demanding role.
• Peter Meven is an elegant Hagen.
• Hermann Becht (you may remember him as the Alberich in the Chereau Ring) displays a sterling baritone as Gunther.

Cons:

• There are a few brief drop-outs throughout the opera.
• There is some mild digital “fuzz” at the end of the immolation scene.
